Test method for performance of high-density port network equipment

Abstract

The invention discloses a rest method for the performance of high-density port network equipment. The test environment comprises a network tester, equipment to be tested, a control terminal PC (personal computer) machine and a communication cable. The test steps are as follows: connecting the first port and the last port of the network equipment to be tested with two ports of the network tester; establishing a VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) table in the network tester through a configuration script, wherein each VLAN comprises two ports; according to a VLAN port member table, modifying the PVID (Physical Volume Identifier) value of each port of the network equipment to be tested as the corresponding VLAN ID; closing the MAC (Media Access Control) address aging of the equipment to be tested, forbidding a STP (Spanning Tree Protocol) and other loop detection functions, and changing the MAC address learning model of the equipment to be tested to a IVL (Independent Vlan Learning) model; and utilizing a RFC2544 test suite of the network tester to have a throughput test. The method can test the performance of multiple sets of full-load network equipment at the same time, thereby simplifying test environment setup and increasing testing efficiency.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for testing the performance of network equipment, in particular to a method for testing the performance of high-density port network equipment. Background technique [0002] In recent years, with the large-scale expansion of the network and the continuous expansion of performance and functions, the performance of core switches has been continuously improved, and users have higher and higher requirements for high-density network equipment ports. The high density of network devices helps users reduce costs and improve deployment flexibility. Under such circumstances, efficient high-density network equipment performance testing methods are increasingly important. At present, in the daily network product performance test, the port density of the company's equipment is getting higher and higher, and the number of ports is increasing (the number of ports of the company's largest equipment is 192), and the cost of profession...

Problems solved by technology

To sum up, there are three shortcomings in the traditional test method: first, it is impossible to test the full load performance of the equipment under test; second, the test efficiency is low; third, the test complexity is high, and it is difficult to locate problems when they occur
